New funding for research projects and infrastructure

Several iNANO researchers could go on Christmas holidays with the good news that they had received one or more research grants. Congratulations to Henrik Birkedal, Julián Valero Moreno, Menglin Chen, Jørgen Kjems, Magnus Kjærgaard, Poul Nissen, Michael Truong-Giang Nguyen, and Nikolaj Roth. Thank you to the Novo Nordisk Foundation, AUFF NOVA, and the Carlsberg Foundation.
